Have had a JB4 i bought secondhand laying about and have decided to install it. i will get someone else to install the wiring etc while they replace my Waterpump/Thermostat . Can it be left unattached to the OBD port so i can connect it to my iphone via Bluetooth later after collection and the car run normally ? I shall be away so will have my iphone with me.

This is the sd card

Still 0343. Would the firmware be on the sd card too ? Its has about 30gb+ on it. According to VW website states that software updates are free for life (will VW update it if i ask ?) i paid for it as it was easier, my internet is poor and had no sd card. Only cost £27.

Is there any way to check that everything is ok ?

Before i looked into this Sat Nav updating i ordered a sd card from ebay. The sd card arrived this morning so i decided to try it. It seems to have worked and these screenshots are the outcome. Seems to have done the job. Update took only about 35 mins.

Thanks for your response. I have taken several photos of the screen after the long press menu . This photo is what i think you need.

Apparently its not possible to do yourself. Has anyone had it done ? VW Retrofit will do it based in Redditch , but have to send glovebox unit to them. Cost inc postage there and back £125.

This seems to be complicated and having asked elsewhere several times and not really got a how to do it guide i will ask here. Elsewhere i have been told “ Patching it , renewing maps licence then downloading maps from an online source” So what does patching it mean? How do i do that? How do i renew maps licence ? Now if i had windows computers i could download the maps onto an sd card and then update. I don’t have one or access to one. So i have been after some help which has been hard to come by. I have bought (not received yet) what i thought was the maps already downloaded for me , but i am told it will not work. So i am after some help , Please . I just want new maps on my car satnav hard drive.

Have messaged him but no response. Does this message system tell the recipient? Or do they have to log in ?

Apparently Rob Tandy on here makes them. Does he still , i am after one thats not coming from overseas…. Anyone have a contact for him ?

Sell to a Car Dealer. There are several around they will give you the best price. Blackdown Motor Co is one. You will be surprised what they will offer. Church’s is another but dealers are always after good low mileage stock. I would also get the wheels refurbed , about £350-400 for Powder Coat. The below image is a dealer after stock on the Facebook R page this morning.

Condenser and Evaporator are different things. It seems a real PIA to get at from this video. Does the white rust as you call it ever stop or stop the thing its rusting on from working. In a black interior it is really anoying.

Anyone had this problem where the heating system blows out white dust . See this video for the work needed to replace it. Now although it is not a failure and the air con and heating works fine, do you think this would be covered under a Warranty ? I think not. Any DIY solution?

The reason there are alot of posts about damaged genuine ones is that there are thousands of sets of them. Less replicas therefore less to be damaged. The roads are the problem, not the wheels. If there were any real issues they wouldn’t still be manufactured. The origin of genuine wheels is known , who manufactures replicas ?

The one in the photo, ECP’s pagid pad option. Advice was sought on that issue And went with the advice given from someone who had fitted what i have.
